“I have been seeking sortable user data tables for quite some time. Finally found it.”
Default Ultimate Member pages rarely match your brand
Ultimate Member handles membership brilliantly. The default login, register, and directory screens do not. Shortcodes and CSS overrides eat hours – and still look generic next to the rest of your Elementor site.
Ultimate Member Widgets for Elementor is the visual builder layer: you design; Ultimate Member still owns forms, roles, and profile data. New to directories? Follow the Elementor directory tutorial.

Whether you need branded auth pages or a full member discovery experience, Free covers the essentials. Pro adds scale and layout power.

Common questions
Does Ultimate Member work with Elementor?
Yes. Ultimate Member Widgets for Elementor connects Ultimate Member to Elementor with dedicated widgets for login, register, member directories, and profile pages. You design layouts visually while Ultimate Member handles membership logic, forms, and user data.
Do I need Elementor Pro to use these widgets?
No. Every widget in Free and Pro runs on free Elementor. Elementor Pro is optional and only needed if you want Theme Builder display conditions (UM core pages on Free; owner, role, tab, and status rules on Pro).
How do I create a searchable member directory in Elementor?
Install the plugin, open any page in Elementor, and drop the Directory Grid widget. Enable AJAX live search and optional role or meta filters. Free includes shareable filter URLs. Full walkthrough: directory tutorial.
Can I filter Ultimate Member users by a custom field?
Yes. Free supports up to two AJAX filter fields with URL persistence; Pro supports unlimited filters, control-only Search/Filters widgets, and Faceted Search with live counts.
How do I export Ultimate Member users to CSV or Excel?
Pro includes a sortable Table with front-end CSV and Excel export. For admin-side bulk export with field mapping, use Export Users for Ultimate Member.
Can I build a custom Ultimate Member profile page in Elementor?
Yes, with Pro. The profile page builder includes Preview as User so you can design cover, avatar, tabs, fields, and buttons. See profile templates.
Does it work with caching plugins like WP Rocket?
Yes. AJAX search and filters keep directory results dynamic behind page cache. Exclude AJAX endpoints if a caching plugin caches admin-ajax or REST aggressively.
How many members can the directory handle?
A cached query engine with automatic invalidation supports hundreds to thousands of members with pagination, Load More, or Infinite Scroll. Pro tables can use server-side AJAX for larger lists.
What happens to my layouts when I upgrade from Free to Pro?
Layouts stay in place. Pro replaces Free and remaps existing widgets. Do not keep Free and Pro active at the same time.
Can I use it without Ultimate Member installed?
Partially. The WordPress Users directory widget works without UM. Login, register, profile, and UM-specific directory widgets require Ultimate Member.
What happens when my Pro licence expires?
Existing layouts and Pro widgets keep working on the installed version. You stop receiving updates and email support until you renew from your Freemius account.
Is there a refund policy?
Yes. 30-day money-back on Pro annual and All Access. The free version on WordPress.org remains free forever.
What is All Access?
A lifetime User Elements bundle for $219 USD once (~$31 per plugin vs $45/yr for Pro alone). Includes this plugin plus WP User Data Pro, UM Export Pro, UserMailer, Paddle, Form Entries, and Faceted Search – lifetime updates, unlimited sites, for as long as we maintain each product.
Does it work with the block editor or only Elementor?
Built for Elementor only. Widgets appear in the Elementor panel. Elementor (free) is required.
